• Title: Bridging the Gap Between Virtual Machines and Kubernetes with KubeVirt
• Abstract: The Hypervisor technology has gotten a lot of attention lately in the IT industry. Are you currently re-evaluating your existing solution? KubeVirt brings a new dimension to Kubernetes by integrating virtual machines (VMs) into its ecosystem, enabling a seamless coexistence of VMs and containers. We will delve into the workings of this technology and talk about some compelling use cases I have encountered. Together, we’ll explore whether KubeVirt could be the right solution for your needs.
• Break: 6:30 to 6:45 p.m.
• Talk 2: 6:45 to 7:15 p.m.
• Speaker: Davor Martinovic
• Title: Users remorse when choosing internal delivery platforms
• Abstract: Were you sold on onboarding to an [internal delivery] platform, maybe even one of its first real live users? MVPs were sold, but very thin promises kept?
  Stick around to find out what can go wrong when all the leading and lagging indicators say you should be having success? Should scope creep be prevented when all your users are having differing needs? Find out what you as a user of the platform can do about it.
• Networking: start 7:15 p.m.
